Cherro DeBlassie BSN, RN, IBCLC
Hi! My name is Cherro DeBlassie and I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and Registered Nurse. I have always been passionate about all things moms and babies and after graduating nursing school in 2016 I started working at a birth center as a birth assistant and later as a lactation consultant. I started Roots Lactation in 2021 when my midwife at the time told me about the need for in home consults, especially in those first precious early weeks when you should be resting at home, snuggling your new baby. It has since become my favorite job in the world, and I can’t ever imagine myself doing anything other than helping moms and babies reach their feeding goals.
My husband Andre and I live in Gilbert, AZ with our 3 beautiful daughters. We love playing board games and going on walks as a family, with our dog Hazel. In my spare time you will usually find me with my girls enjoying a stroll through Target with some coffee from Starbucks!!
I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your journey!
Anna Panosian, RN, BSN, IBCLC
My name is Anna and I am a Registered Nurse and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. Before becoming an IBCLC, I worked as an RN in pediatrics and the NICU. In the NICU I fell in love with helping postpartum mamas and babies adjust to and navigate the NICU. It was such a privilege to be able to care for the tiniest babies in their first days, weeks, and months of life.
After I had my first little one, I struggled with breastfeeding for about 2 months before I reached out to an IBCLC. I am so thankful that I was able to get help with my breastfeeding journey. I have benefited from the help of an IBCLC with my second baby as well and, through becoming a mom and breastfeeding my own babies, I have developed a passion for educating and being a resource for mothers and babies during the postpartum period. I feel so blessed that I get to do something that I love and look forward to supporting more moms and their little ones. My husband and I and our kiddos love spending much of our time outside. Camping and hiking are some of our favorite things to do as a family.
